Zusatztext
Daisy Chain is a novel George Eliot, Jane Austen or the Bronte sisters would have penned had they been born in 20th century Glasgow, brought up listening to the Bay City Rollers, and The Clash... the award-winning author takes readers on a dark, mysterious, and cruel journey at times, with an unexpected twisted narrative.
